To Wonder. Sonnet 36 (Sonnet 36)

REading sometime, my sorrowes to beguile,
I finde olde Poets hills and floods admire,
One, he doth wonder monster breeding Nyle,
Another maruells sulphure Aetn…es fire.
Now broad-brimd Indus, then of Pindus height,
Pe…ion and Ossa, frostie Cauc…se olde,
The Delian Cinthus, then Olympus weight,
Slow Arrer, franticke Gallus, Cydnus colde.
Some Ganges, Ister, and of Tagus tell,
Some whirle-poole Po, and sliding Hypasis,
Some olde Pernassus where the Muses dwell,
Some Helicon, and some faire Simois;
A fooles thinke I, had you Idea seene,
Poore brookes and bankes, had no such woonders beene
